- Jaws (1975) “You’re gonna need a bigger boat” Credited as being the first summer blockbuster in history, Steven Spielberg’s Jaws made an entire generation afraid of the beach.
- Taxi Driver (1976) “You talkin' to me? Well, I'm the only one here. Who the f*** do you think you're talkin' to?

- Stand by Me (1986) "The most important time in your life is the time you spend with your friends." The quintessential coming-of-age story, Stand By Me follows a group of four 12-year-old boys (played by Wil Wheaton, River Phoenix, Corey Feldman, and Jerry O'Connell) who embark on a journey to find the body of a missing boy named Ray Brower, who is rumored to have been hit by a train.
- Scarface (1983) “Say hello to my little friend!” Brian de Palma’s epic about the rise and fall of Cuban immigrant turned Miami drug lord Tony Montana has become one of the greatest crime movies of all time, and in a field that includes movies from Francis Ford Coppola, Quentin Tarantino and Martin Scorcese, that is high praise.

- Blazing Saddles. One of the funniest movies of all time, Mel Brooks' western spoof stars Cleavon Little as Sheriff Bart, the first Black sheriff of a racist western frontier town, and Gene Wilder as his partner The Waco Kid.
- California Split. California Split is one of director Robert Altman's (M*A*S*H, Nashville, Gosford Park) more under-the-radar titles, but this dramedy starring Elliot Gould and George Segal as gamblers who team up hoping to turn their bad luck around is a lot of fun and one to catch up on from the legendary director.
